The Cartographers’ Guild is a forum created by and for map makers and aficionados, a place where every aspect of cartography can be admired, examined, learned, and discussed. Our membership consists of professional designers and artists, hobbyists, and amateurs—all are welcome to join and participate in the quest for cartographic skill and knowledge.

Although we specialize in maps of fictional realms, as commonly used in both novels and games (both tabletop and role-playing), many Guild members are also proficient in historical and contemporary maps. Likewise, we specialize in computer-assisted cartography (such as with GIMP, Adobe apps, Campaign Cartographer, Dundjinni, etc.), although many members here also have interest in maps drafted by hand.

Aloha!

Aloha Everyone!

I'm a long time lurker of this forum. I am about to start working on a fairly extensive project with some friends soon. I figured I should join the guild as I will now finally be actually cartographing! (Not sure if that is a word...)

I live on a small island in the ocean. I am currently a web developer and a student at the local community collage but my goal is to move to Game Development/Design.

Everyone calls me Rel so feel free to call me that if you like. As to my username Eforen it is pronounced Eh-vor-ren with the R rolled I say this only because people often think it is Ee-Fo-Ren.

I can not say my work will be great but I hope it is atleast good... though the bar seems to be very high in this guild.
